purple-line

Install via package manager (Ubuntu/Debian)

An APT repository is available for installing the plugin. The repository contains the purple-line
package itself, and the required Apache Thrift packages which are not properly packaged by either
distribution.

The makefile supports a flag THRIFT_STATIC=true which causes it to download and build a version of
Thrift and statically link it. This should be convenient for people using one of the numerous
distributions that do not package Thrift.

You can also install the plugin for your user only by replacing install with user-install.
